Yeah, as you said, the script is not meant for internet streaming as Ive tested on my apple tv. However, I did some modification of your script and now its working for internet streaming as well.

For those who is interested, here is what you need to do. There are only 2 files you need to modify.

(1) default.py - you need to replace the "xbmc.Player().getPlayingFile()" with xbmc.getInfoLabel("listitem.filename")
(2) gui.py - you need to replace the "xbmc.Player().getPlayingFile()" with xbmc.getInfoLabel("listitem.filename")

and you're done. Remember to browse your downloaded subtitle in /Volumes/Applications and make sure you tick the "Search for subtitles in RAR" in the XBMC video settings.

Okay now, to start with, you can download my watchnewfilms video plugin. I updated the plugin to remove brackets & genres as these could 'disturb' the search-string.

p/s:but if you feel dont hv time to replace the strings, you can get the modified script on my googlecode pg. (OpenSubtitles_OSD).

Credit goes to developers of those 3 scripts and Amet.

Hope to hear feedbacks on any issue arises.

great work,

I will have a look and maybe I can add it in the next update if it doesnt break the original script functionality.

if not, sorry for making trouble in your thread.

No problems,

I will look into it. the reason the xbmc.Player().getPlayingFile() is there is to get the full path of the file. We need that to calculate the hash.
Hash is used to do a better search on OpenSubtitles.org site.
I will need to install watchnewfilms and then test to make sure everything works.

tested the latest version, 1.03 in PMIII. the OSD would not load. log they there was something wrong with Line 72 in the videoosd.xml. there was a typo which i fixed. it was, "<</visible>" instead of, "</visible>".

i finally got it to work! i had to put all the files from the media folder from the PM3.HD into the Project Mayhem III's media folder. i also took the .xml files from the PAL PM3.HD folder and put them in the PMIII's PAL folder. but as expected, the window is off the screen for 4:3 tv's.

seems like opensubtitles.org is under maintenance right now, but maybe you can fix the window?

1) OpenSubtitles is not under construction as far as I'm aware, it just sometimes takes a few attempts to connect due to the slow website they use and the amount of traffic.

2) Unable to check at the moment but I'm pretty sure the subs are saved in the same location as your film. Just go to the Audio menu (on the video popup menu when playing a movie) and check "enable subtitles" then browse to where the subtitles are.

i downloaded a sub and it said it downloaded and extract successfully, but the movie still had no subs to display.

Hi,

here is the fix for a window PM3.HD.zip

Please let me know so that I can include it in a next version.

The subtitles are saved in the same folder where the movie is.
sometimes when the website is down or having problems the downloaded file isn't actually a zip as it should be, its an error page 500 or similar.
